Welcome to The List,
Dolly Parton’s sister hopped online asking for prayers, saying Dolly “hasn’t been feeling her best.” The 79-year-old legend just postponed her Vegas tour thanks to a kidney stone that decided to throw a party and turn into an infection. But don’t worry, Dolly’s still hustling. She’s got a new book dropping November 11 and a Broadway musical in 2026. So yeah, she might be down, but this queen doesn’t stay there long. Send those prayers she’s too sparkly to stop now.

“Fast & Furious 11” might be hitting the brakes before it even starts. Vin Diesel’s gotta shave $50 million off the $250 million budget or the whole thing might get scrapped. Universal’s talking fewer cast members and no fancy overseas shoots which, honestly, might mean less family time. The franchise has been sputtering lately anyway. Like really, who out here asked for ANOTHER Fast & Furious movie? Even my car’s tired of hearing about it.

So apparently Taylor Swift has no plans to do the Super Bowl Halftime Show anytime soon because she’s “too focused” on Travis Kelce and his stellar on-field performance. Yeah. “Locked in” on the guy who’s been dropping passes like mixtapes. Tay Tay, but you could headline the Super Bowl and still have time to babysit the Chiefs’ offense.

Zach Bryan’s stirring things up again because of course he is. He dropped a teaser of a new song on Instagram called “the fading of the red, white and blue,” and it mentions ICE raids. Naturally, everyone freaked out, so he jumped back online to say, “chill out, the full song hits both sides.” Basically, he’s just a 29-year-old guy confused like the rest of us… only with a guitar and millions of followers watching him do it.

AT THE MOVIES...Thursday’s at 5:40, brought to you by North Grand Cinema in Ames and IBC KIX 101.1….

Welcome to The List…
Hollywood’s biggest fear is officially here. Dead actors… still booking roles. A new movie is using A.I. to bring Val Kilmer back. Yeah. From the grave… straight to the premiere. The director says Val wanted this. His family signed off too. Which is great… until your Netflix suggestions start haunting you. Somewhere an Oscar just felt uncomfortable.

Tom Brady says he wears a disguise to his kids’ games. Not kidding. Hoodie. Hat. Full undercover quarterback mode. Apparently the kids don’t want attention on them because… you know… their dad is TOM BRADY. Imagine trying to sneak into a gym when you’re built like a superhero statue. Sir… we still know it’s you.

Rumor is Keith Urban might be going through a midlife crisis after the split. Sources say he wants to live the single life again. Totally different person now. Which honestly just sounds like every guy who suddenly discovers energy drinks and fitted jeans. Next step is obvious. Corvette. New Balance. Bluetooth headset.

Kenny Chesney just launched his own record label. Big move. Real boss energy. It’s named after his boat… because of course it is. And the first artist he signed…drumroll… Kenny Chesney. Man skipped the middleman and hired himself. HR meeting must be real smooth.
